In the heart of the Yorkshire . Everyone knows I will be there and the second-best tournament is underway.
Seems to start earlier each year. Ronnie is even turning up to this one. Anyone but Alan McAnus for me.
McManus due to meet Ding as early as the last 32 .Nice to see players outside the Top 16 and rising stars of the future.

When O'sullivan goes out (as he surely will), that's it for me.

I have greatest respect for Rugby Union, they started it mid-way through the 19th century. Thankfully we grabbed it and turned it into a spectacle on 29th August 1895

It's a shame they banned Quintin hann. He was an interesting character . Stephen lee is teaching snooker out in china now. I remember Ronnie winning this when he was 17. His dad had only just been sent to jail

Re: The Official UK Snooker Championship
Father and Son story continues as Oliver and Peter Lines are in the last 16. Peter beat Judd (no relation to The Donald) .
They could meet each other in the semis, but unlikely with the likes of Ronnie and Ding in their half. The only other family ties were the Old Davis brothers Fred and Joe, and Uncle and nephew ,Silvino and Peter Francisco.

I've noticed there are a lot more Asian players. Good news that snooker is becoming more global. Lots of snooker clubs such as Riley's have closed since the smoking ban

Re: The Official UK Snooker Championship
I see it's on BBC2. Haven't watched snooker in ages. I can't believe the players are still made to wear a fucking waist coast and bow tie. I suppose it's to add an air of respectability to a 'sport' that is fucking fixed.

Quarter-Finals
Mark Williams (Wal) v Ronnie O'Sullivan (Eng)
Jamie Jones (Wal) v Marco Fu (HK)
Luca Brecel (Bel) v Shaun Murphy (Eng)
John Higgins (Sco) v Mark Selby (Eng)
Best ever tournament for Brecel and for any European outside UK and Irish Republic.

Re: The Official UK Snooker Championship
There was a great call I heard on the radio this week. That cunt bloke, the old manager of Davis? Whatshisname? Barry Hearn, that's it. I think they were talking about snooker not being as popular as it once was or something, the caller said: "In F1 you may not like the product, but it's full of beautiful people. Models hanging around, pop stars etc. etc. And people like to see attractive people. Then you have snooker ....". I did fucking laugh.
That said, I'd still shove my end up Hazel Irvine's chuffbox.

Re: The Official UK Snooker Championship
Have you honestly seen John Parrot and Steve Davis looking like fat middle-aged cunts sitting in chairs talking about 'cushion' bounce on a snooker table. For fucking hell's sake. Hazel Irvine sits there transfixed by this utter drivel as if it's the latest musingi uttered from Noam Chomsky discussing the demise of the Liberal Left. I am not a violent man but I have a terrible urge to setup a foxhole and shoot to death everyone involved in snooker.

Re: The Official UK Snooker Championship
I saw the Ronnie v Fu match last night and there were so many obvious misses I seriously questioned if the match was fixed.
The amount of live bets possibly placed on a Fu comeback under play like that made me wonder.
